CRICKET.

The Christian Brothers' School Cricket Club played the final match of the season — School v. St. Aloysius' College, at the College grounds Waikari on St. Patrick's Day. The match resulted in another victory for the School by four wickets. This is the third match played during the season between these clubs, all of which have resulted in favour of the School. There appears to have been some difference of opinion concerning the second match, which the College at the time claimed as a victory. The facts aie, that the School in the first innings scared seven more than their opponents. The second innings was left unfinished, and as a draw in a one day's match is decided on the first innings, the School very justly claimed a victory. The Club has pla-ved during- the season eight matches, five of which resulted in their favour. In addition to the above, several challenges were declined by the District Schools. The School will open the football season on Saturday, March 26, by a mateh — first fifteen again&t twenty-two of the School.
